So am I to understand that you guys would rather anyone post whatever bullshit they want even if it is known to be false?

They can post it, and you can refute it...

I think some folks would just rather that someone told them that they are wrong, and then explain why, without all the smart-assing. That's the impression I get. If someone is hung up on a bullshit technique, what better way to convince them otherwise? Is it better for them to get all defensive and ignore good advice, and then spread the crap to other newbies and other sites? Roel's first post in this thread is the sort of response that should be emulated more often.

At the same time, brand-newbies should really refrain from smart-assing themselves, and stop being so goddamn sensitive. I think Boray got a little too sensitive, but then everyone piled on. It's pretty rude when people do that. It's sort of an "I'm cool cuz I called somebody stupid" effect. (I thought the whole cool, detached, hate-everything postmodern angst thing was on the way out...)

I think in general (esp in the mic forum ;) ) people should really start ignoring stuff that annoys them, rather than getting all worked up over it.
 
I hear you esactun, latelly ive noticed alot of hostility on the bbs. Some times i like it ( it makes me have a good laugh at work) sometimes its pointless. Where are the moderators? and do they delete bullshit posts?
 
You need to have a laugh once in a while.

I know some of these guys do this for a living including me (u2, bryan ferry, sterophonics, to name a few)

looking back my comments were a bit over the top but dont take it to hard.

actually blue bears kinda right about one thing i was talking out my arse

i don,t really consider myself a wannabe though!!.

It was only your comments that, to me, made you sound like one! ;)

Anyways, forgedabowdit... ancient history..........

Welcome aboard - this site could always use more pros!!

Sleepyhead...

Since you don't own a Roland recorder, why are you in here?
 
This site is about homerecording in general. We browse the posts using the new posts button, so we see all posts. This topic isn't really related to the roland recorders, so anyone can comment on it. Your speakers are not gonna sound better or worse if you have a roland workstation or a vintage studer...
 
I don't know about anyone else, but when I join a new online community, I always try to scrap with the guy who has the highest post count.

It's a little trick I learned in prison:D :D :D :D :D :D :rolleyes:

Big Bear Cunt,
You fucking dickhead, you at it again? You are without a doubt the biggest donky dick sucker I've ever come across.

Folks, with that many posts .... add it up, when the fuck does this panty waste record? The only thing he records are how close his loads come to the ceiling fan while working on his "craft". They don't call him "Palm-Pilot" for nothing.

Of all the professional musicians or engineers that I've ever known in my life, none were ever close minded like you, you bear bung-hole mo. Yeah the first traight in learning an art is to be a close-minded twat. The only people I know with this type of lightweight attitude are FUCKING HACKS.

All you do is cruise looking to pounce on folks to somehow rationalize you own miserable non-registering existance.

You have been weighed,
You have been measured,
You have come up wanting...

you ridiculus tool.

Now folks for the witty reply.

ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What the fuck do people expect when they post a title to a thread like "How to turn your old stereo speakers into the best sounding monitors you ever heard"?

There was a guy came into the cave awhile back who claimed to have the cure for cancer,some goddamn seaweed supliment or such nonsense.As I remember,he got flamed pretty good too.However,I think I would come closer to believing that than this speaker shit................

What's next,"how to turn your cassette multitrack into a 2" studer".....?


geesh!!!!!!!!!
 
To Blue Bear:
The fact that you run a studio in Ottawa immediately discounts you from any serious studio dealings. I grew up in studios such as Criteria (now the Hit Factory) in Miami in the 70's and played on several hit records from the time I was eighteen. Your attitude towards Boray demonstrates that you're a pompous ass. Please tell me what you've done musically, if anything.

What does this bullshit mean?

Congratulations -- but how is that relevant to the topic of monitors?? Just because you walked into a studio, or played at a studio, doesn't mean you have the first clue about audio engineering - much less control room monitoring... :rolleyes:

Actually, my post demonstrates that I know what I'm talking about... his post, and the ones that agree with him demonstrate that quite a few people really have no clue about monitoring and room acoustics...

You want a list of my clientele??? Sorry, that's MY business, friend - unless you want to become a client.....


Or is this simply your roundabout way of asking if you can be my bitch too?

Well... ok... sure - why not? I'll have a harum...........


gimme a fuckin' break.... idiot..... :rolleyes:
 
Hey small cub squeak,
I'm not sure if you noticed this but your cyber harum is populated by all men. I figured with someone with a gay name like bruce would be someone who likes to putt from the rough. Call me old-fashion, but I like women harums. Your pretty tough way up there in canuckland, I got a feeling if we were to meet in person, you might change your tune.

And by the way folks, check out his original response to my post calling him out last night... within a minute. This is why he has no work to show us and has > 3000 posts. It takes more than recording with a boom-box of your ABBA tribute band to make a pro. YOU AINT IT!!

And by the way, KRK monitors almost suck as much as you. Almost. This certified you are full of shit.

See how easy it is to do what you do.

You and your 15-year old cronies make me sick. You're the idiot rump-ranger with no life other than pouncing on people who are willing to share their findings...right or wrong, at least they attempt to share. Who made you keeper of this site you d-bag.

You are such a tool. Now give this a couple of minutes before your clever reply or someone will think you sit around all-day jerking off on the internet.

Here's the thing, a newbie should lurk before they leap. At least use some deductive reasoning if you're too lazy to read the BBS before calling someone a know nothing dickhead.

Do any of you fresh faces think that you're going to undo some nearly 4000 posts worth of contribution and nearly two years of participation with your little flamewar?

Bruce has earned some respect around here and you guys still haven't learned to wipe your feet and close the door when you enter.

Take a breath or two and post something other than "How to turn lead into gold, REALLY!!!" and you might garner a little cred in this place as well. Till then, you're all just whiney little bitches with snot on your upper lips.

High Krakit!

OK those alchemists did NEVER EVER get to changing lead to gold, but they found out a lot of other things, didn't they? ;)

I just wonder how easily things can grow to real WAR!!! I also wonder why all newbies have to be assholes in your opinion - I don't feel like one :D

Ciao,

Axel
